Random Field Modeling of Microstructure in Unidirectional Fiber‐Reinforced Plastic Using SEM‐Image and Image Processing for Multiscale Stochastic Stress Analysis Considering Random Fiber Arrangements

Abstract

For quantitative estimation of mechanical properties of heterogeneous materials such as composites, a deterministic multiscale analysis framework is not enough, and a probabilistic aspect in microscale should be considered. In article number 2101259 by Sei-ichiro Sakata and co-workers, discussions on probabilistic multiscale stress analysis of unidirectional FRP with randomly arranged fibers considering a random field of local volume fraction of fibers can be found.
